Coach Talk

Rush More
Nice job, Rush More. Putting together a team that earned 79 points this past week.
Wine Me Dine Me 49 Me
Wine Me Dine Me 49 Me may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 20 targets in Week 15. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group managed just 10 receptions.
